Korranberg is a large city in Zilargo. It is the oldest city in Zilargo and,[1] It is home to the vaunted Library of Korranberg, which is more than a library but perhaps the greatest collection of knowledge on the world of Eberron and among the best universities.[2]
History[]
The Library of Korranberg was founded approximately 3000 years ago, as the first dragonmarks were manifesting, including the Mark of Scribing of House Sivis. Loremaster Dorius Alyre ir'Korran is credited by gnomish historians and librarians as being the founder of the Library, wanting to erect a "fortress of knowledge" to unlock the mysteries of the world.[3]
Government[]
The center of gnomish knowledge is also one of its centers of political power. The Triumvirate, which rules Zilargo from Trolanport, was originally instituted as a governing body at the Library of Korranberg. One of its representatives is still chosen from Korranberg.[4]
The city itself, like Trolanport and Zolanberg, is administered by a Council of Nine, from which the city's triumvir is chosen. Several of the members of this council are also members of the Aurum.[4]
Dragonmarked Houses[]
House Sivis, whose most ancient enclave is in the city, is among the most important.[1][5]
Notable Locations[]
- The Codex Vault, a shrine to Aureon[1]
- House Sivis's ancestral citadel[1]
- Headquarters of the Korranberg Chronicle[4][1]
- Library of Korranberg[1]
